Lady forced to seek prince

While Da Zong and others were talking, he saw a group of people walking over.

The Zhongshu Provincial official took a closer look and said in a low voice: "That is Xiao Qi from Prince Yu's Mansion."

When the eldest princess of Changle received the order, Xiao Qi did not show up. Officials from the Zhongshu Province also speculated that the eldest princess did not agree with the nephew.

Later, Da Zongzheng told them not to reveal the news about Prince Yu's palace first, so as not to cause any complications.On the surface, they didn't dare to say much, but they kept paying attention to Xiao Qi's movements.

Sure enough, when the troops were being ordered at the school before the expedition, Xiao Qi and the others showed up.

This is the first time Da Zongzheng has met this nephew. From a distance, he looks like a young man of fourteen or fifteen years old. He is wearing light armor and shows a bit of heroism. Looking at him like this, he really looks like the old King Yu. .

No wonder Prince Yu's Palace has such confidence. It feels that after Xiao Qi appears, the connections that Prince Yu's Palace has already gathered will recognize the Prince of Yu's Palace.

Da Zongzheng looked very calm on the surface, but deep down he was lamenting that after all, it was the Xiao family, one or two of them, who were uneasy.If the late emperor hadn't secretly trained many generals back then, I'm afraid someone else would really have been replaced on the throne.

To put it bluntly, they are not fuel-efficient lamps.

Apart from being plotted by the old King Yu, the deaths of the late Emperor's Queen Zhang and her child had nothing to do with the late Emperor?Didn't the late emperor deliberately hide his clumsiness and treat Empress Zhang and her son as pawns, deliberately deceiving people and making those who competed with him for the throne think that he was weak and despised him? Otherwise, how could he suddenly mobilize 10,000+ troops? .

With these things and people in front of him, no matter how humble and polite Xiao Qi seemed now, he would not believe it.

Xiao Qi stepped forward and saluted Princess Changle first.

Princess Changle nodded: "This outfit is quite good."

Xiao Qi said: "This is what eldest brother left for me. I never took it out before, but today is different... If there is a chance, my nephew also wants to do something for Daqi."

The words were not stated clearly, but everyone could understand that Xiao Qi wanted to follow Princess Changle into battle.

Princess Changle looked at Xiao Qi: "It's rare for you to have such thoughts. Although King Yu is the late emperor's direct son and not your biological brother, he entered the military camp at your age and was sent by your father to serve as a vanguard. You have fought bloody battles, risked your lives, made countless military exploits, protected the people of the Qi Dynasty, and promoted the reputation of the sons of the Xiao family. If you really have the heart to serve the Qi Dynasty, you should learn from King Yu. "

Xiao Qi's heart sank. Princess Changle's words were very meaningful when she thought about it carefully. In just two sentences, Xiao Yu's identity was corrected, Xiao Yu was completely disconnected from him, and Prince Yu was also directly Admitted to Xiao Yu...

Xiao Qi pursed his lips. At a time like this, no matter what Princess Chang Le said, he could not contradict her, but had to comply.Fortunately, before coming today, he had already thought about it and could not care about temporary gains and losses.

"What my aunt said is true," Xiao Qi said with a bow, "nephew, please keep it in mind."

Da Zongzheng narrowed his eyes slightly. What Princess Changle said really touched the ears. If the princess didn't mention it, everyone might not have thought that the late emperor's legitimate son was thrown into the vanguard army by King Yu at a young age. He almost missed it several times. Life is not guaranteed. If Xiao Yu is the biological son of King Yu, everyone will feel that the old King Yu would give up his own blood for the sake of Daqi.But Xiao Yu was the legitimate son of the late emperor. What did King Yu have in mind when he treated a prince like this?Did you deliberately want him to die in battle?Not only did he get rid of the late emperor's heirs, but he also added to the reputation of Prince Yu's palace.

Don’t worry about everything. After Princess Changle finished speaking, officials from the Ministry of Rites and Zhongshu Province looked at each other subconsciously.

Da Zongzheng noticed that the expressions on the faces of the generals standing not far away were not very good-looking. Some of them simply left their faces uncovered, their eyes full of anger and injustice.

Xiao Qi obviously noticed this. When the matter reached this point, he could only support it and pretend not to care.

There was silence on the stage for a moment, and Princess Changle did not speak further, letting the atmosphere and emotions slowly dissipate.

The weather was particularly good today. After standing for such a while, small beads of sweat formed on Xiao Qi's forehead.Fortunately, he was not kept waiting for too long. The attendant next to him stepped forward and handed him a secret letter.

Xiao Qi looked aside with his head lowered, a look of joy on his face, and he walked quickly to Princess Changle and bowed. "Aunt, my nephew has just received the news," Xiao Qi said, "Several generals under my father's command have persuaded soldiers and horses who were loyal to the Feng family to arrive at Xingyuan Mansion."

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Qi thought that there would be a lot of discussion, but he didn't expect that the surroundings were still silent.

Needless to say, the soldiers stood there motionless, with no expression on their faces. The court officials behind him seemed to have expected this.

Xiao Qi took a deep breath. Even though he had experienced so much, he was inevitably nervous at this moment.

The imperial court ordered soldiers and horses from all over the country to come to reinforce Xingyuan Mansion. This was the order on the surface, but secretly the Grand Master would not let the reinforcements come so quickly.

At the time when the political situation in Da Qi was unstable, the generals who interacted with Xiao Qi took advantage of this loophole and did not listen to the Grand Master's wishes.

But the court couldn't do anything to them. After all, the Ministry of War also issued an explicit order.

No matter what, Xiao Qi did this to support Princess Changle and stand on her side.He believed that when the soldiers and horses arrived, the eldest princess would miss him.

This is a timely assistance.

If Princess Changle is not dealt with properly, how will any generals be willing to defect to her in the future?

Xiao Qi thought clearly about this and was in today's situation.

Princess Changle showed an unexpected expression: "They have arrived at Xingyuan Mansion?"

"Exactly," Xiao Qi said tentatively, "Are you going to let someone lead them here?"

Princess Changle smiled slightly: "Of course, the more soldiers from our country come here, the better our chances of winning will be."

Xiao Qi breathed a sigh of relief, what he wanted to do was accomplished.

He just wanted to let the eldest princess Chang Le take over his favor in full view of the public, and let the people left behind in Prince Yu's Palace send him to the position of the Crown Prince of Prince Yu's Palace.

Princess Changle gave the order, and a general immediately went to lead the people. Within two moments, Xiao Qi heard the sound of horse hooves.

Mrs. Zhou came out of the carriage not far away. Her eyes were red and tears almost fell from her eyes. She looked at Aunt Jiang: "Did you hear that? The soldiers and horses are here, they are here."

Aunt Jiang looked happy: "I heard this."

Mrs. Zhou said: "When there was no one around my son, I let them bully me. But now it's different. Let's see who dares to look down on him."

Aunt Jiang nodded repeatedly: "What Madam said is that from today on, the young master will be the real Prince Yu."

Zhou raised her head to see more clearly, but she saw a carriage slowly approaching.

Zhou's heart trembled, and when she didn't know what to do, she saw the carriage stop. The person guarding the carriage stepped forward and opened the curtain, and a person stepped out.

That was Zhao Luoyang.
